Called but hung up before I could answer the phone.

Reportedly from "Bank Security"… concerning a dubious Amazon order and a transaction marked as international.

I missed the call when I wasn’t home and figured it might be some kind of scam, so I looked it up here just to be sure.

Just got a call on my home phone yesterday from someone who somehow knew my name. They told me there were two odd big payments made, one supposedly at Amazon, and if I didn’t make them I should press 1 to talk to their team for assistance. I didn’t even hang about, just ended the call straight away and blocked the number. If something feels off, trust your gut instinct every time.

I've noticed some deductions from my account linked to Amazon in foreign currencies. Unfortunately, there’s not a scrap of additional information provided-no details about the banks involved or any transaction data whatsoever. It's quite perplexing!

This was definitely a dodgy call trying to get me to press 1 to check for bogus charges on my bank statement. Best to catch these lot and give them a good telling off!

Got a recorded call claiming to be my 'bank', talking about payments involving Amazon and overseas transfers. Definitely a scam trying to phish info. I’ve blocked the number straight away.

Got a voicemail claiming to be from my bank about some strange activity on my account. Rang the bank straight away and they said there’s nothing unusual going on. Seems like it was trying to be a scam or some sort of fraud.

This caller keeps bringing up sums of money withdrawn from our bank account. We decided to just hang up, yet they persist in ringing us repeatedly.

I'm rather suspicious about potential credit card fraud. It feels entirely like a ruse when they prompt you to ‘press 1’ and all that. What a dodgy con!

Complete and utter con! They claimed to be from Bank Security, warning me about dubious purchases on my Amazon account. It's the classic tricks these scammers employ. I've now blocked their number!

I answered the phone, but it was just silence on the other end. I'm pretty convinced it was one of those dodgy scam calls.

I received a recorded call earlier today stating that there were suspicious transactions on my credit card. This number has called me three times just today alone, and it’s evident that it’s a total scam - especially since they didn’t even mention which bank they were supposedly representing. Quite the cheeky con, if you ask me!

I received two calls today claiming that money had been withdrawn from my bank account. It appeared to be an automated message, so I hung up straight away. Clearly, it’s a scam.

Scammers at work!

What a nuisance! I keep getting calls from this automated voice, and it’s always from a different number. It’s becoming quite tiresome. Surely British Telecom could do something to put an end to this madness, wouldn’t you agree?
